EXACT CENTRE UNDETERMINED.
[BY TELEGRAPH. —OWN CORRESPONDENT.]
"WELLINGTON, Friday.
An earthquake of a fair degree of intensity was recorded at the Dominion Observatory, Kelburn, at 3.38 a.m. today. It would appear from the records to be about six or seven degrees distant from Wellington, possibly somewhere in the vicinity of the East Cape. Its exact location, however, cannot be as yet determined pending correlat|on of the records. East Cape is suggested as the district owing to the recent shocks reported from that quarter.
